Tian Xiaoding accidentally discovered Tianyang Sect, a ten-star sect, and took Su Lanlan with him to answer the call.
There were not many people in line, and it didn't take long before it was Xiao Ding's turn. Xiao Ding once again put his hand on the root tester to test, but there was still no reaction. The old Taoist shook his head and said: "Without heavenly roots, it is not suitable for cultivation. You must have taken some elixir before you broke through to the third level of Qi training, right?"
Seeing that the result was the same as the previous test at Wuji Gate, Xiao Ding had no choice but to nod his head and express his acquiescence.
He thought that this time, he would be rejected by others. Just when he was about to turn around and leave, he heard the old Taoist continue to say: "But, seeing that you have stepped into the threshold of cultivation, come to our sect." It’s okay to be an outer disciple within the sect.”
After saying that, the old Taoist took out a jade tablet, handed it to Xiao Ding, and said: "Within seven days, go to Tianyang Mountain in the south of the town, find the chief helmsman of Tianyang Sect, and report with this jade tablet. .”
After Xiao Ding took the jade token, he thanked her politely, then stood aside and watched Su Lanlan test.
Just like last time, Su Lanlan put her hand on the root detector, and a purple light flashed on the stone ball, which was very dazzling. The veteran behind the table was so surprised that he cheered repeatedly.
He beamed with joy and said to Su Lanlan: "May I ask what you call me? Where did you practice before? If you come to our Tianyang Sect, we will definitely train you as a core disciple."
Xiao Ding also knew at this time that Su Lanlan's Tiangen must be extraordinary, otherwise the Wuji Sect and the Tianyang Sect people would not be so polite to her after seeing Su Lanlan's Tiangen.
Sure enough, there was no suspense. In the end, the old Taoist also gave Su Lanlan a jade plaque and told her about going to Tianyang Mountain to report.
Because Xiao Ding had also been admitted, Su Lanlan did not refuse this time. After the two of them asked Lao Dao about the route to Tianyang Mountain, they turned around and left the wooden shed at the recruitment office.
Now that he has found a sect to take refuge in, Xiao Ding feels confident this time. He and Su Lanlan plan to stay in Chuanyun Town for one night to rest and recuperate before hitting the road tomorrow morning. It’s not too late to report to Tianyang Mountain.
The two of them turned from the back street back to the front street where there was a lot of traffic. Walking forward, not too far away, we saw Chuanyun Inn, the largest inn in town.
As soon as he walked to the door of the inn, Xiao Ding saw Liang Nanguang who had just walked in the door. He walked a few steps quickly and followed him into the inn.
In the lobby on the first floor of the inn, facing the entrance of the inn, is the inn's counter. Behind the counter, the waiter is busy greeting the guests.
Since Xiao Ding and Su Lanlan walked in closely behind Liang Nanguang, Liang Nanguang had already seen Xiao Ding and the two. So he quickly clasped his fists and said politely: "Brother Tian, it's a pleasure to meet you. We are really destined! Are your brother and sister also planning to stay in the hotel?"
Xiao Ding quickly returned the greeting and said: "Yes, yes, I didn't expect that we would meet again by such a coincidence. I guess Brother Liang also plans to stay here tonight, right?"
Liang Nanguang nodded and responded: "That's what I meant. I plan to take a night's rest and set off to report to the Wuji Sect tomorrow morning. I wonder if Brother Tian, you brothers and sisters, can also be admitted to the Wuji Sect?"
Xiao Ding shook his head and said: "I don't have Tiangen, so the three old men at Wuji Sect were not willing to take me in, but were only willing to take in my sister, so we didn't agree to go to Wuji Sect, but went to another house."
"Ah? Went to another house? Which house did you go to?" Liang Nanguang asked curiously.
Xiao Ding took out the jade sign, shook it, and said: "We went to a more awesome sect called Tianyang Sect. It is a ten-star sect. It has three more stars than the Wuji Sect? I see this whole street There is only this Ten-Star Sect."
As soon as Xiao Ding finished speaking, Liang Nanguang burst into laughter, laughing so hard that he was out of breath. Xiao Ding quickly asked in confusion: "Brother Liang, why are you laughing so much?"
Liang Nanguang finally stopped laughing and said: "Brother Tian, you have been deceived. There are no ten-star sects in our Fengluan Continent. The lowest-level sect is nine-star, and the highest-level is five-star." Martial Arts.”
"The level of a sect, doesn't it mean that the more stars there are, the higher the level?" Xiao Ding looked confused and his eyes were full of mosquito coils. He had taken it for granted because he didn't ask Liang Nanguang before.
"Of course not, but the fewer stars, the higher the level of the sect." Liang Nanguang corrected with a smile.
"I see, it seems I made a mistake." Xiao Ding regretted, and then continued to ask: "Then, by what standards are the levels of the sect divided?"
Liang Nanguang patted Xiao Ding on the shoulder and said: "Brother Tian, you are new here, so it is normal for you to make mistakes. Our sects on the Tiankun Star Continent are generally rated according to the number of powerful people in the sect. For example In the nine-star sect, it means that there is a great master in the Nascent Soul stage in the sect; in the eight-star sect, there will be two great masters in the Nascent Soul stage in the sect; and in the seven-star sect, there are three Nascent Soul stage masters in the sect. A powerful person is in charge; by analogy, a sect with five stars or above is determined based on the number of virtual god bosses in the sect; while a sect with three stars or above is based on the powerful experts with a cultivation level of Chengding or above. It depends on how many people there are; in the one-star sect, there will even be powerful people in the transformation stage who are in charge."
When Xiao Ding heard this, he understood, and then asked strangely: "But that day, why did Yang Zong have a ten star engraved on the sign?"
Seeing that Xiao Ding was confused about the ten stars in Tianyang Sect's painting, Liang Nanguang explained: "As far as I know, this Tianyang Sect is actually not even a Nine Star Sect, because they are members of Tianyang Sect. , the highest-level monks are only those at the Golden Core stage, not even one at the Nascent Soul stage. Perhaps because they couldn’t reach the level, they created a ten-star system to mislead those who came from other planets. People from Tian Kun Star probably hope to use this to attract more people who don’t know the inside story and strengthen the sect.”
After hearing this, Xiao Ding was relieved. Although the deceptive methods used by Tianyang Sect are a bit dirty, their purpose is just to attract people's attention and recruit more disciples.
But, then again, there is nothing wrong with it being ranked at ten stars instead of nine stars, right? When it comes to lying, it's not really a lie. It's just that you don't understand Shixing.
Xiao Ding secretly regretted it, so he immediately decided to try another sect tomorrow to see if he could join a higher-level sect. It is better to find a sect that does not have one. The reason why I want to find a sect to take refuge in is to find a backer to rely on. If the backer is not strong, then why rely on it?
However, I heard from Liang Nanguang that on Fengluan Continent, because spiritual energy and resources are relatively scarce, it is difficult to practice to a higher level. Therefore, the highest level sect on this continent is the five-star sect. . There are almost no sects with five stars or above in Fengluan Continent.
And after Xiao Ding walked around the street several times today, he only found that sects with seven to nine stars were recruiting disciples, but he did not see any sects with five stars or six stars recruiting disciples. So he asked Liang Nanguang again the doubts in his heart.
Liang Nanguang explained: "Five-star and six-star sects are already considered top-notch cultivation sects in Fengluan Continent, and their reputations are also well-known in the world of immortality. Therefore, the disciples who take the initiative to join will be there every day." There are many, many, and there is no need to come near this interstellar teleportation array to recruit specifically."
After hearing this, Xiao Ding felt that it made sense. He thought to himself that he did not have Tiangen talent and his cultivation qualifications were too poor. Even if he went to a five-star or six-star sect, others would definitely not accept him. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.
The three of them chatted in front of the counter for a while, and then there were three of them in line. It's just that the business of this inn is so booming that the first-class guest rooms are already full. There are only a few low-class guest rooms left, the kind that have no windows on the dark side, or even if there are windows, there will be buildings outside the windows blocking the view.
In desperation, the three of them had to book a lower-class guest room each. Although the conditions of the lower-class guest rooms are not as good as those of the upper-class guest rooms, they are cheap and only require two white lower-grade spiritual stones to stay in them for a day and a night.
The three of them found their own rooms on the shady side of the first floor and moved in. Although the light in the room was a bit dim, it was quite clean.
Xiao Ding sat on the bed, thinking back on what happened after arriving in this world today, as if it was a lifetime ago. He was particularly concerned about his wife Ouyang Qing, sister Tian Xiaoe, brother-in-law Ou Muyun, and several other confidante who jumped into the Bermuda vortex with him. I wonder where they all ended up?
As soon as he landed on the hillside in the morning, he encountered two tomb robbers and almost died from them. Will other people encounter any dangers when they come to this world?
He finally snatched a few treasures from the two tomb robbers, which gave Xiao Ding some comfort.
Although so far, he is still unclear about the specific functions of several treasures, but judging from the primitive atmosphere exuding from the surface of those items, Xiao Ding can be sure that these items are definitely not ordinary items. .
After coming down from Chuanyun Mountain, he went to apply for the Immortal Cultivation Sect, but found out that he did not have the qualifications for cultivation. This made Xiao Ding very frustrated.
He originally hoped that he could continue to practice, but he never thought that his qualifications would be so poor. He didn't even have a single attribute of heavenly root. How could he still cultivate a big-headed ghost? For people with heavenly roots, they can keep improving with just a little practice, but even if they try ten times harder, they still can't achieve any results.
If this is the case, what should I do in the future? Thinking of this, Xiao Ding felt depressed.
